"William Yang: Seeing and Being Seen explores photographer and performer William Yang's five decades of prolific art practice. This is the first major survey exhibition and publication on the artist by a state gallery. Featuring reproductions of over 200 photographs, it traces Yang's career from his heady early days as a social photographer in the 1970s documenting Sydney's queer scene through to some of his well-known series addressing family ties, sexual and cultural identity, and the Australian landscape. Developed in collaboration with the artist, the publication also examines the artist's deep connections to Queensland, including his mid-career explorations of growing up in the far north of the state."
